fight between bulldog and goat, in front of

The Oldest Presbyterian Church.-Rev.
r. H. Williams, of Annapolis, on Saturday last
delivered an interesting address before the Har-
ford County Historical Society, his subject being
"The Puritan Colony which came to Maryland in
1919; who were they and what became of them ?"
Referring TO Presbyterianism in this State DR..
Williams said: "The oldest Presbyterian churches
in Maryland are Mount Paran, in Baltimore coun-
ty, and the church at Churchville, Hartford county
Their origin cannot be traced accurately beyond
a certain period on account of the loss of the
records.
ont. Paran is ten miles northwest of Baltimore
city. It's history can be traced to 1715. Its first
name, which it bore for more than so years, was
"Church of the Patapsco." Its second name was
"Church of Soldiers Delight" which it had IS
years, the name being taken from a tract of land
in the neighborhood. 1t has borne its present
name for so years. The site of the present chucrh
is probably not identical with that of the first
church. There areievidences that the first church
was in existence in 1928. In Ills application
was made to the merchants of London for a min
lister for Patapsco Church, and they sent Hugh
Conn. 1t was doubtless founded by the descen-
dants of the Puritans who settled at Annapolis in
1649.
"Cnurchvile Church can be traced to 1885,
When Whitfield crossed the Susquehanna in 1889
he went to spot q miles from Churchville, where
he found Presbyterian congregation, with an
edifce, on Graveyard branch.
An Insurance Case.-The Belair 1Egis of
last week says: "On Monday Judge Waters
heard arguments in the case of John Chatterton
VS.. the Agricultural Insurance Company of New
York. Mr.. Chatterton's stable and contents in
sured in the company for about $500, were des-
troyed by fire. The company failing to pay the
insurance for some reason, Mr.. Chatterton brought
suit in tho Circuit Court for Hartford county. The
law requires that the writ of summons in such
case shall be served upon the agent of the company
in the county where the loss occurred and q copy
thereof left ut the principal place of business of
the company in the State. The Sheriff served the
writ on Mr.. David l.. Pyle, the Hartford county
agent of the company, and not knowing any other
place of business of the company in the State, also
left q copy of the writ with him. Counsel for the
company, Mr.. Geo. L. VanBibber, made motion
to quash the writ, on the ground that copy had
not been left at the company's principal place of
business, which is in Baltimore. The motion was
argued by Mr.. Henry W. Archer and Col Herman
Stump for Mr.. Chatterton, and by Mr.. VanBibber
for the company. The court held that the copy
of the writ should have been left at the office in
Baltimore, and quashed the writ, but intimated
that the point was merely technical, because tho
defendant had notice of the suit and was in court
to make objection. Consequently new writ of
summons must be issued, returnable at the May
term ofcourt.

Death Of Worthy Citizen.-Mr. John
Tames, highly respected German citizen, died
at his residence, Lauravlle, on the Hartford road,
on Thursday morning, in the list year of his age.
His health had not been good for some time, but
no serious results were apprehended and his death
was quite sudden and unexpected. Mr.. Tames
had been engaged in bookkeeping and farming
at Lauraville for many years and by industry and
close attention to business was very successful
and accumulated handsome property. He was
an upright, honorable man in all his dealings,
and had the respect and esteem of all who knew
him. He leaves wife and family of grown
children. His funeral will take place from his
late residence at 2.30 on Sunday afternoon.

gray mustache and his head was bald. He had

found pair of eye. glasses, forty cents in money
and some other small articles, but nothing that
were cut across his left wrist, which had been in
ficted by an old blood-covered knife found near

his life Justice Pindell, of Waverly, held an in
quest and the jury rendered verdict of suicide.
DR.. Duncan, who examined the body, said the man
had been dead several days. The body was re-
moved to Waverly station-house and as it was not

Eklo, 9Th DISTINGUISHING back in the
chimney, cutting potatoes on recent cold, rainy
day my meditations reverted from active outdoor
labors on my farm, the source of my scanty in
come, to the wild rush for Office by the politicians
and by the way my tax money is, shall say
squandered, in comparison to the way my private
expenses are contracted and paid. There are two
ways by which we taxpayers may find relief, viz,
commencing at the Judges of the County Court,
cut down the salaries of everybody in and about
the Court House and give US shorter terms of court
and longer hours of clerical service. This will re-
duce the number of office seekers and clamor for
jury service. We might except County Commits
sioners in this sweeping reduction. If any one
feels aggrieved at this estimate of their service let
them resign and seek higher plane where there
is always room.
Allow me to quote prices of twenty years ago
when I settled here. came in the spring and
bought poor land with but few buildings at $50
an acre cash. 1 had nothing to eat and often at
tended Pennsylvania sales to get square dinner.
Flour cost me $15 barrel, corn S1.0S bushel,
oats Is cents, potatoes 81, bacon Is to 20 cents,
hay $50 for wild grass, masons charged $3.50 and
day laborers 81. Now compare these prices and
what we farmers get for the same produce and the
improvements in buildings, fertilizers and fences
which have run my land up to 500 an acre, and
people would think I was crazy to ask $50 an acre
now, and the only way can steer out of this di-
lena is three meals day, in gratitude that my
wornout teeth and wider throat have not impaired
my digestion.
Let us have lower taxes is the second way to
help us along. In the distribution of offices what
"mortal fools we be" must be the estimate the
lower districts put upon US to think any would
aspire for any of the best offices from the 9th dis
trict. We don't intend to be sold out or put in
any body's vest pocket and say ~ vote the 9th
district" if we can help it. Rock BorToM.
